JK Rowling on Oprah

I absolutely loved this. If you haven't watched it, do it now! Made me love Harry Potter even more.

Livin for the Weeekend

This weekend, we went on a triple-date with some of Jacob's other married friends. We got fries and shakes at Sammy's and played a never-ending game of Catan. After about THREE hours, we all turned into monsters. It was scary. and fun.
On Saturday, we went over to the Duffy's to crave pumpkins, eat caramel apples, and watch the Labyrinth ( I guess people thought it would be scary? Just reminded me of being a kid..). I love doing festive things for holidays! and i love caramel apples!
I also worked on halloween costumes and got nooo homework done. oops

Nostalgia

Lately I've been doing a lot of reminiscing about old TV shows I used to watch and stuff. I even got into a pretty long discussion about them with some friends last night. I know I'm supposed to not be stuck in the past and all, but tell me this stuff doesn't make you want to go back in time for at least one weekend! (We could spend our Friday night watching TGIF!)
Best song ever!!


Did I leave out any really good ones?!

By the way...

I'm in a band. Meet "The Jingleberries". Wait does that sound like.. nvm.
Brooke on drums

livin the dream

welp. Just thought the world should know that I went ahead and made them cookies with my sister-in-law yesterday. They were even better than I imagined.
We also dyed each other's hair then got Jacob and went to a bonfire/rockband party AND Kami's Twilight Zone marathon party.
Feeling pretty popular by now.

my brain

I'm usually a pretty good student, but today when I should have been learning grammar and semantics, all I could think about was chocolate chip pumpkin cookies.

please make me some. please?

getting oooold

Last weekend we went Fillmore, UT for Jacob's 5 year reunion. Don't most people just do a 10 year? Anyway, out of his graduating class of a whopping 75, about 20 people and their spouses came. We were pretty much just hanging out with his friends that we normally hang out with, but it was fun to meet a few of his other classmates. After the volleyball tournament, we went to Jordan's farm to ride a zipline. To get up, we had to climb a really tall ladder up a tower and I am terrified of heights/climbing (so much that I tend to freak out whoever's with me). Once I got over my fear, it was really fun! Then there was dinner + a raffle, and we won some pretty sweet prizes.

Now I'm feeling pretty old. Or at least that I'm married to someone old.. Ok not really. But sometimes I feel like a grown up. Like when I go to the grocery store all by myself and get our weekly groceries to make dinners I'm sometimes like "woah this is such a grown-up thing to do!" Or when Jacob is always wearing a tie and dress shirt because he's becoming a business man. It's pretty weird and kinda cool. I don't know why I'm surprised every time I realize that I'm not 16 anymore! I'm losing it already..
